Community Development in Cambodia

Join World of Difference and discover Cambodia, where students will explore and participate in community development projects. By doing this students will contribute towards the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. World of Difference Cambodia has four focus areas: teaching, childcare, healthcare, and women’s empowerment. Volunteers will have the opportunity to lead a variety of workshops including developing computer skills, CV writing, access to resources for victims of domestic abuse, preventing the spread of HIV & AIDS, and understanding parental rights.

Workshop topics can be chosen based on the students’ specific skill sets and the interests and needs identified by community members. While participants will be working as a team, there will be numerous opportunities for students to hone their leadership skills and to take point on various aspects of the program.

The program will be a combination of exploring the culture, politics, and religion of Cambodia whilst also completing volunteer work, interacting with local community members, and participating in adventure and cultural activities. Free time and optional excursions will be built into the schedule, depending on the school’s wishes.
